I
think the best part of being me today is being a stalker. I love following
people that I do not know, yet I am putting myself to their boat. Unmatched
thoughts made me ask myself, how do they manage life like they have? What’s
really a life to be like them? Is it happier to be like them than me?

Obviously,
a part of me always gets interested why I allow myself to get in touch to their
works while mine are too far from them. I don’t think we are neither related to
each other, I feel discrete though however I can’t stop following them. Forgive
me anyway, I love to trail.

When
I am bore and when I am connected with net, what I usually do is I used to go
through the blog post of my friends and you know I will not leave the
commentary part as well :P. I read everything. I will be always in curiosity
who is that person to comment on that particular article. I love to know more
about them as if I’m letting consumed my day just merely getting to know them
more than what I’m supposed to do. Then, I click his/her link and if I find
that person’s comprehension help me in any means or I can explore more and
learn more from them. Then positively, I will start following him/her, not
personally, I will not do that if they allow me also… fact aside hehe :P.

Until
one day I realized that I would love to be stalked too until I wished and there
you are guys, lol!

Kidding
aside, following other people about their lives changes me, fulfilled some
parts of being me today. I do not know but there’s an interest of getting people
around me sometimes. I may sound useless, to admit it again more than many
times but it is very true, I’m not a writer. I just love to write. That’s also
inspired by the people that I follow :P.

But
as what everyone knows and probably would say that everybody started like my
way. I don’t have heroism to write most of the time but there’s something
inside of me aching to just be here to fill my small space.

I
have to apologize for being too straight forward today friends. Today I am
feeling lonely. I have no friends to count on around me and no one to turn with
when I think I need some. Yet I only found this space friendly, who would
accept my say. When I felt I have none. Although I know that I am being fenced
by many true friends, but still when they are not around me I feel like world
seems depopulated and that’s how dreadful I am sometimes. Ultimately, I will
always be thankful that I have them.

Don’t
worry; I don’t stalk all of you because obviously I don’t know who you are. Just
in case anyway, I will be stalking with benefits because we all deserve to
share what we have.

So
just stalk my page, my pleasure!

Just
don’t follow me personally because I won’t have the courage to allow
either,lol!

Keep
stalking others too and you’ll see the payback afterwards. Who knows, you will
be next following by everybody!

Hi, everyone! Today is Friday which means tomorrow will be
Saturday. Obviously it will, right?

I’m congratulating myself that I‘m almost able to surpass
the whole week which seems too blur to see back. I don’t know why I have
the feeling of hardship to deal my everyday this week.

Anyways, I’ve been aching to get back to this space and
express again, and yet there is so much keeping me busy and fulfilled in other
parts of my life.

But more than everything, I miss you all, I love being here
that’s why no matter how speechless I might be today, I still have the nerve to
be with you. I will not promise anything to post now which makes me better because
I am too lazy or do not have all the time to update here so I think I will
just be relying of the mood. I will be having whenever I am here. So, I really
can be as transparent as what you all might be expecting and that’s how I wanted
to do so I can really be of myself with sense too.

Today is holiday but I am desperately missing everyone. I need
to be here in the school for again few more days, please don’t ask me why and I
will not give you the answer as well LOL HAHA. All my friends left, no students
to be seen around eww! felling blue. Holidays
seems torture for me, calling my mom and friends all the way and saying how I
miss them.

Nyz, I have jotted down
the big events that happened in last four days…

Monday, December 15, 2014

When I was young; I prided myself on having a good memory, not
only for faces and places, but for the words people speak in their daily lives
and I could utter the movie dialogue A to Z, wow! I wish I can have that
powerful memory in motion… But now I find that my memory is not so trustworthy.
Of course, memories are not neatly filed away so that we gain immediate access
to our whole memory bank, for me, memory acts in a most dreamy way. We find
ourselves remembering a garden in our childhood, playing and fighting with our
childhood friends, memorizing elements in the periodic table, memorizing the
mathematics formula or Memorizing the
multiplication tables, memorizing Gaseylagleng! Wow! I appreciate my
brain for what I did. But the biggest problem
with rote memorization is that it can be forgotten after the exam or if I
cannot remember the first starting sentence, then I couldn’t start the whole
sentences. So, when I reach college I was pretty reluctant and gave minimal
importance on studies. I memorized less. Is that the reason why I acquire less
memory power today?

My problem is I keep forgetting things
where I placed them... and also when I have to get something, then I will go to
that place or storage, if I am already there, I forget what I am supposed to
get or to do…if I am doing flashback analysis on the problem (e.g. where I
placed the thing?), I get stress a lot. What seems to be my problem and a
solution?

I am really tired of being absentminded; today I
forgot where I have placed the list of students who lost their books.

Photo of the day... Sorry no post was linked with this foto
Nyz, Tnxx:Yangs, Gangs and Maam Sugar :P for making a grt day :)

Next is, I’m also having trouble. I keep on
forgetting what I am about to say to my friends. Sometimes in the middle of a conversation,
if someone comes and disturb me, I forget what is the topic that I’m talking
about...I can’t continue
speaking, because I’m completely at loss about what I try to say or describe
before…

and it happened pretty often
too… What could be my problem? Please help me…I have been asking myself the
questions like:

Is absentminded
a disease?(Scary: Oh NOO!!) Do my friend experiences such things like me?(Wanna
hear) Is it just out of interest? (Fun)…How can I be mindful?(Lesson). Please
leave me a comment to help me.

My personality and character are
two important features that make me who I am. Although I may have some
weaknesses in my character, I am basically the upbeat type.:P. I try to be as happy as I can most of the
time.

Being down or depressed comes
with everyone's character at some point. When I come across this point in life,
it is one of my weak situations. When something happens that makes me angry,
the outcome is always sadness. I let my emotions out but crying or keeping
quiet to myself. Depending on what the situations are :P.

Las(okay) let me strike to the point, some would say I am a boring. While others would say that I'm creative,
multi talented and very artistic blah blah :P. The truth is, I enjoy writing about
my life and events. I like hanging out only with besties. Playing chess and
knitting are my favorite activities ;)

I have ever experience in all my years here. It was total clear and I knew exactly what I was doing and I could feel
everything.

Before I explain my
dream, I will start with a bit of back ground about me which might help you to understand
more. LOL

Since I was a young
girl, I have had a lot of strange dreams where I paralyzed in sleep; I have no
ideas what causes it. When I reached class XII; I experienced fewer dreams. As,
I slept less than eight hours :P. During college days as well, I use to hang out
with friends, assignments, face booking, kept me busy all the times. So, I slept
less. Whereas now a day, I have much of leisure time, hence you will find me in
front of the TV or reading books. You know reading books will leads me to snooze,
in a moment. :P.

I lately finished, ‘Buddhism in the modern
world’ and now I am hanging out with, ’Moment to Remember’.

What actually happen
to me is, I doze up during the daytime and at night I will have the scariest
dreams. So, I promised not to sleep during the day time and also not to sleep
more than eight hours and & n nd no to have the dreams LOL:P. Odd character
about me is that, I will always remember only the most weird dreams. I always
wanted to remember the most beautiful dreams as well, but by crack of dawn, all
the sweet dreams will fade away from my memory. L

In this dream I had,
it was a beautiful day the sun was out and it was really bright, there were a
few large puffy white clouds. I was on top of a huge cliff surrounded by
mountains nothing out of the ordinary. I was alone with heavy heart, searching
for a lost child. There were two women, who approached me; I can sketch their creepy
faces.:P

At last it was said
that the child was my nephew, who will celebrate his 2nd birthday in
20th of January 2015. This is reality. Huh!

When I saw that two
scary women; fear suddenly rushed through my body. I started to get a butterfly
sensation in my stomach. I felt my heart rate shoot up as they started to approach
me. I reclined on the ground and implored them saying, ‘Please, give my nephew
back’.

They listened to me
and they are kind enough to return him back but they said, ‘We threw your
nephew in the river. What so ever, we will use our net and we will take him out.’
By then I fell on the ground, I became numb; my eyes are filled with tears, I
was actually paralyzed. I wanted to talk to them but I couldn’t. I wanted to
scream I couldn’t. Eww, I never suffered in my real life. I could see them,
throwing the net in the river and they bringing a huge bloody lifeless fish and
they said, that’s your nephew… Suddenly I was awakened by my friend Yagchen. ‘Rupa,
are you okay?

I opened my eyes and
then I started to realize it was a dream and started to calm down and suddenly
I was completely conscious and was aware I was in my bed, but I was able to open
my eyes plus move any part of my body. I could see my entire room, it was dark
but I could see everything in my room. I quickly chanted ‘Bazaguru’. Later, I
realized that's because it was all a part of the dream realm.

Though scary but I
wanted to continue my dreams, just to bring the happy ending. I forced my eyes to
close and I wanted to continue my dreams but I couldn’t. I could visualize only
the weird faces of those two ladies. I could see rainbow colour of the rays
approaching my eyes. I couldn’t sleep. After that, I put on my TV and I watch
the football match between Liverpool and Sunderland.

Now, I realized that if
I sleep more. I will definitely going to have dreams at night, so I am force
myself to stay till 11 PM in the evening and then to be awake by 5am-5:30am.
That habit will provide me with ample of time to do the morning activities plus
NO DREAMS AT NIGHT. LOL :D

At the same times, I
appreciate my brain, which is really fascinating things. It's like; dreams are
some awesome virtual-reality video clips played by the memory of brain. It's
amazing what our brains can create sometimes. Despite its scary sometimes, it
really is nothing to be concerned about. Remember, video clips of dreams will
be played only in the world of fantasy LOL.

I'm currently reading "Buddhism in modern world" and
it's been such a good read. I love the author's suggestions for how to
make prayer a priority. Sometimes I feel like I'm constantly meditating (knitting)
:P so it was nice to be reminded that it's a less stressful. I've been
incorporating authors idea about prayer and scheduling into our routine this past
week and life has been much easier and spiritually fulfilling.

You know, a couple of
months ago I experienced a great disappointment from someone I trusted. I was
left with confused and uncontrollable mind. I was in depression. I always thank
my blogger friend who stimulated me to read a good book. You know, today I am hooked
up by book. I was trying to find the key wisdom that could allow me to finally
reach a peace of mind. On this mission, I learned a lot about life, love and
happiness. I realized that the most useful knowledge comes from the very basic
and traditional thoughts. Simple words have deep deep meaning.

It is impossible to
write here everything that I have learned, but I'll try to tell in a sentence,
which has impact my life in an extremely positive way. ‘I realized that, the power of positive thinking is extraordinary.’

Blogger
friend, you write many wonderful words of wisdom. Though I haven't had a chance
to leave a comment individually, I'm reading them and learning a lot from all
of you. Thank you so much for sharing the wisdom you've encountered. I'm
looking forward to read more. Keep sharing your inspiring, thoughtful and
brilliant ideas.

Many thanks for good inspirational books as well.
My next assignment is to read: Thanks
for the Memories by Cecelia Ahern.

I hope
you all had wonderful and blessed days. I had a fun, cold gloomy weekend
with my parents and had a great time. I felt so grateful for all the love
that surrounds me.

I know I
missed a few days in my grateful posts along the way, but I did think of
something each day even if I didn't get a chance to write it down. It was
a great exercise in counting many blessings in my life and I was drive away by
my hobby (Knitting). So, I am not able to drop into my little space. :P

And now
on to start! Yesterday at Mass I was thinking about just how grateful I
am for the time leading up with my parents. My parents visited me a week
long ago. I ordered my mom to buy something, that’s hush-hush lol.
She did shopping for me and I liked all the stuffs she brought to me… ;)

My parents with Yanchen ;) <3

The show of appreciation is long
overdue. My parents are the best parents one could ever be blessed
with. I appreciate my parents more and more. Words cannot describe
the love I have for them. My parents don’t need gifts to feel appreciated.
I know when I express my feelings for them, which are a present that not enough
money in the world could buy.I
would be lying if I ever said I am NOT the apple of my father’s eye. I am
Daddy’s Little Girl, forever… Okay okay, arousal of self boasting: P.Anyways, afew months ago I decided that I wanted
to get away from nagging mom to buy me something, but my craziness didn’t allow
me. You know, Samcholing is very remote place. It’s already winter here, it’s
very cold and in fact I have only a pair of boots. So, that was the only
reason, why I nagged my mom :P.

Now that I am
all grown up, sometimes it is hard for my parents to accept that I am an
adult. In their eyes, I will always be that curious child who would act
innocent. I will always be that little girl who wanted piggy-bag, not
wanting to eat food while going to school. Mom, preparing noodles for me,
that’s beautiful. I will always be their little girl, though I am already oldL

As the years
passes by, I slowly have to deal with the realization that my parents are not
immortal. I wish they were and if I knew how to make them live forever, I
would. I don’t think it is possible for them to truly know how much I
love them and how much I appreciate what they have done for me. I try to
treasure every moment I have with them and hold
onto these wonderful memories I have of them. Eww! am I
emotional? :P

Nope :PL

Final message to my parents: I cannot
thank you enough for giving me this life. Without you, I would not be who
I am today. Without your sacrifices, I would not be successful.
Without you, I would be nothing. Thank you baba-mummy.

Okay,

I hope you all have a blessed
beginning December… Enjoy closing stage of twenty-fourteen and prepare for next
year. Twenty-Fifteen is going to be a blessing for every one of us. So, be
happy and farewell December with your warm open heart and wide smile. ;)

Friends played an important role in my personal and professional life. They encouraged me when I was cheerless, they entertained me when m feeling lonely, and they listened to me when I have problems. I have varieties of friends: schoolmates, college mate, colleague, and much more. Each type of friends is helpful in one way or the other. I have brought the photos of my beautiful friends. Please have a glace LOL :P

Okay, so I've been pretty bad
about updating these...School has been keeping me busy, along with some other
things in my personal life that have come up. The funny thing is, I know
this blog is a much bigger deal to me than it is to all of you la, and yet here I
am fretting that everyone is going to be disappointed if I don't post the
photos of the sponsor that we had made to our neighbor dratshang LOL. Kidding ;)

As I have mentioned in the last
post, the entire money

that we have collected from the annual school archery
tournament will go to Samdrupcholing Dratshang. We were successful to buy the
necessary stuffs last Sunday, but we could handover only by yesterday evening…
If you want to subsidize in future; then please remember poor monks of
Samdrupcholing Dratshang and do something for them. They will definitely smile
broad by adding you happiness on other sideJ.

The cold dark winter evening was
brightened by the marchang ceremony and followed by the prayers recited by
the monks.

Though it was too cold, but our
body was warmed by the hot suja(butter tea). After that, our principal was kind
enough to hand over some of the essential goods we brought for the monks.

Summary
of the book was already done by Mr. Sherab. I read his summary and he touched every
part of the book. If you would like to visit his summary then this is the link.

First of
all let me not forget to thank Ugyen Gyeltshen Sir for his creditable account
for lending a book to me. He mentioned me not to thank. UG sir, I am sorry la. My
post would be incomplete without thanking you la. I hope you won’t mind.

I can’t believe
myself that I finished a novel in a day. I used to say that reading is not a
part of my hobby. I do not read more than 15 minutes truly and I always used to
admire the book worm, wising to be like them. Something miracle happened to me
right. LOL :D

I received the book on Wednesday; but I could
start only on Sunday. Wednesday till Saturday kept me busy with paper work at
school, preparing for an annual examination.

Once met
owner of the book on air, I mean online.

He asked me,
‘How do you find the book?’:P .

Shall I
turn into offline mode, pretending not to see his messages? Oh that’s cruel! I was in guilt cuz I didn’t read the book.
What reply should I give? Mulled for few seconds…

I responded him saying that,

“Good evening
sir.

I didn’t finish reading la.

It is very
nice book.

I read the summary of the book from Sherabs blog,
I wanted to read it. So, I hunted for the book… blah blah…”

I
diverted the topic.

Haha any
ways he understood, that she is yet to start the book.

He wrote,
‘Take your own time.’

Ah! I
took long breath and I wrote.

‘Thank
you J’

:) <3

Sunday, I
woke up early and I did all those necessary house hold chores quickly. After
that I sat on the chair with Half Girlfriend and dated whole day.LOL.

I
experienced the beauty of reading.

I didn’t summarize
the book but I answered few questions: Please go through.

Characters
in the story:

·Mrs. Riya Somani, is the daughter of the rich business man. Resided
in Delhi. Riya is Mahadevs wife. She is very beautiful and fluent in English.

·Mr. Rohan Chandak, a son of a
rich family. 24 yrs old man running his own business. Married Riya and divorced.

·Mr. Mahadev, the narrator of the
novel, and the husband of Riya.He is from Dumraon in Bihar. Poor man but rich
heart J

·Mr. Mahendra Somani. is the
father of Riya. He has got a less sense of humour.

·Mrs. Jayanti somani, is the mother of Riya.

·Mr. Piyush Yadav is the sport
teacher at St. Steven college…

·Shayam; two years son. Riya
described him as, ‘dare devil grandson.’

·Rani sahiba, mother of Mahadev, Kind,
sweet but disciplined woman.

· Mr. Shilesh: Friend of Mahadev in college
who lend his blazer and shirts to Mahadev when he first visited Riya’s house.
He also provided free residence for Mahadev in USA for three months.

Mrs. Joyti: Girl friend of Shilesh. Kind and beautiful.

Source: google

What do you
like or dislike about story and why?

There are a lot of things that I liked from the story
but the very moment that captured my mind is: DIVORCE and I LOVE YOU.

When Mahadev enquired about Rohan, she said,’We got DIVORCED’.
That’s painful for Riya but that is the best news for Mahadev.

When Mahadev reads Riyas letter at his home in Bihar, latter
sentence of Riya’s letter read, “I LOVE YOU” ‘three words eight letters but so
powerful huh. That three words sentence gave a strength for Mahadev to search
Riya nook and corner of the world, finally Mahadev found Riya. He asked her
hand and she agrees to marry him. That’s BEAUTIFUL J. They
came to Bihar and ran the school.

But the only thing that I didn’t like was that sunning
news of the Riya’s marriage with Rohan. I felt what, two bastards are doing.
She said that, Rohan is also a Rakhi brother. How dare she marry with brother,
thought she is bitch :P.

Your
opinion of the illustrations tastes and figures.

The book
may be predictable in parts, but that does not prevent from the beauty of this story.
This is a beautiful, romantic, heart-warming story that will sure to leave you
board smile at the end. I was immediately captivated and transported into the world
of Madhav Ja &Riya.

What you
felt as you read?

As I came
across this book “Half Girlfriend” by Chitan Bhagat it was so sweet, simple, humorous,
emotional and heart touching story. Truly I had a mixture of feeling; emotion stretches
from laughter to frustration. That I couldn’t help myself to stop the tears
roll down my cheeks when Riya left Mahadhev. Parle-G packets around him,
weeding invitation on his hand, eww hard moment for me to swallow on other hand
I cannot stop my laughter when Mahadev understand English in other ways and
looking at his frustration during the interview: ‘These English speaking
monsters would eat me alive’ LOL

What you
noticed while you read?

As I went
on reading this story, gradually their acquaintance bloomed into friendship and
then to Half Girlfriend-Half boyfriend, later to love. Everything felt just
picture perfect but author didn’t tell us what happened
to her lung cancer. Author, brilliantly captures the
emotions of human heart which will tug the reader’s hearts but peculiarly falls
short on the passion that this kind of story desperately deserves.

Questions
you have after reading.

What it really means to love
another by helping your love's dream become a reality.

Love is always ready to excuse, trusting,
to hope, to endure whatever comes, stay true. But why did Riya married Rohan?

Riya never mentioned that her dad
was a heart patient. He died because of heart attack. Was it all because of
Riya’s divorce? If it so then, why did he left separate deposit for Riya?

Why Riya is less connected with
her families? Is that what happened in high class family?

What it
reminded you of?

It just
reminded me of my own life :………………………………………………………………………………………. yet to tell 1001
stories of my life :P

What you
wondered?

As I read
the story I just wondered of how this sweet tale of young but everlasting love
can mean so much to someone and if the people when they read the story will
really understand what it really means. So, please read it.

What you
learned?

The very
important thing that I learned from this story is that we should be true to one
person who is tattooed in our heart, rather than wasting our time caring and
thinking so much to the people who don’t care about us.

What you
thought was important?

We should
share our dreams, aspirations and passions with each other. Though you will
have bitter-sweet endings to things sometimes but we cannot afford to think
that it’s the end, instead move on with the memories that we held within us.

What you
think will happen next?

I really
cannot say what will happen next.

Any ways
let me guess, Mahadev and Riya will have next daughter child. They will also
visit the Riya’s place in Delhi during vacations. Else both of them will be always
dedicated in their work forever, in their non-profitable school, and improves
the standard of English in their Hindi medium school as Riya speaks fluent English.
She would be teaching English to her students. Mahadev’s Ma(mom) would be smiling
board with warm heart playing with grand son and a daughter.

This is your
daughter Rupee writing you a "THANK YOU" note. I know thank you is
nothing in terms of what you have done and doing for me. I may forget myself
one day but i can never forget you. Because you are the best mom in this
world plus you are the first lady best friend in my life. I have been
blessed by ken-cho sum because I am loved by you....

I know I
haven’t been the easiest daughter to have. I remember well that I was a small,
carp, cranky, black-hearted, violent child. I punched and kicked my brothers as
m pampered by parent being only a daughter and punched my classmates’ as well.
I didn’t really eat food. Mostly I demand for the money to purchase for the
junk food. I’m still sorry about that every bad deeds. I was a bad girl!!LEven,
bad girl was constantly loved by my mom.J

I still
remember how you chased A GIRL WHO Bullied ME WHEN I WAS IN class one. I
punched my classmate called Phul Kumari. She cannot resist my pressure on her;
so, she came with her elder sister, and I was beaten by her. I cried and
complained to my mother, she followed short way and warned the girl. I am proud
of my mom because you stood by me, though I am wrong.

‘Thank you
mummy

For all the
wrong you made me right

For all the
truths that you made me see.

For all the
joy you brought to my life.

For every
dream you make come true.

For all love I
found in you.

I will be
forever thankful mummy.

You are the
one who held me up and you never let me fall.

You are my
strength when I was weak.

You are my
voice when I couldn’t speak.

You are my
eyes when I couldn’t see.

I am grateful
for what you have given to me.’

my heart is
swelled with pride and eyes filled with joy of tears am am so lucky to be your
daughter

I was blessed
because I was love by you. You are my inspiration.

I am hoping
that saying "THANK YOU" will do some magic in conveying that you are
the world best loving mom…

My
dad is equally loving and caring one. I will find suitable time and I will
write more about him la(‘LA’ is the respectful word in dzongkha)J

of 11 days :P. I have listed few random highlights of past 11 days...

gloves and a scarf for myself, enjoyed cheering up the archery tournaments organised
by Samcholing Middle Secondary School, ran marathon. I also prepared questions
for annul examination; I am done with PE rating as well. That’s the highlight
of all eleven days.

Student dedicating sppech to HM.

Dedication form gradee one student

1st
November, is very special day for
we Bhutanese, as it is the day when his majesty the Fourth King of Bhutan, the
father of present king abdicated the throne to King Jigme Gesar Namgyal
Wangchuk. It is a national holiday in Bhutan. Majestic celebration was held in
Samcholing Middle Secondary School organised by all the lady teachers. Where as

the fund to donate the money to nearby dratshang (a place where monks resides).
Two days archery tournaments mounted up almost sixty thousands, apart from the tournaments
prizes for top three winners; we accumulated exactly Ngultrum(Bhutanese
currency) 25000. We had made small contribution to Samdrupcholing dratshang.

As a tribute to our fifth king, we lighted 108 butter lamps.

Samdrupcholing dratshang is presently runned by a khenpo(Highly knowledge monk) along with thirteen monks. It’s too pitiful to
see the monks, going to the village during the season of rice harvest to solicit
a small quantity of rice; so that they can feed themselves for few weeks. It
says that samdrupcholing lhakhang is electrified but we cannot see any rice
cooker nor curry cooker to cook the rice for monks. So, we teachers planned and
organised a fund raising programme; so that we can help them in a little ways
we can. We actually planned to buy few kitchens essential so that it will ease
the work of monks.

Yesterday, 11th of
November again it was a big day for Bhutanese. It was a birth anniversary of
our fouth Druk Gyalpo. King Jigme Singye Wangchuk is the longest served king in
Bhutan, he has a heart which melts the hearts of his people.

We welcomed the day by hosting of
national flag and reciting the national anthem. Welcome speech was given by
vice principal. We lighted butter lamp and recited heartfelt prayers by the
khenpo, all the monks, students and teachers of Samcholing. As tribute to king,
monk displayed mask dances and cultural show by students and teachers. The
programme went till 2 PM. And the programme ended up with the distribution of
suja(Bhutanese butter tea)and Desi.

School marathon:

We ran and we ate…

School marathon was scheduled on 8th
of November and the picnic was on Saturday, 9th of November.

It
was a beautiful, cold and sunny morning which was perfect for a marathon. The
marathon was full of runners. We categorized the team runners into four groups:
Senior boys,Jr. boys, Sr. girls and Jr. Girls. We kept different range for different groups of
girls and boys. . Everybody was full of energy and prepared for the run. They
were in an athletic outfit: shorts, tops, head bands, sneakers and anything you
can image... At 7am they started their race’s. I also joined, Jr. Girls: Some
went further and some fell back. I kept my pace at a steady normal jog. I
wasn't trying to compete anybody but I ran for fun. This was a great event for
me. I ran along with a few girls who kept the same pace as me. I ended my race
at the finish line in dash-dash minutes :P. I was pretty exhausted, so I ate huge amount
of breakfast KIDDING :P.

Enjoyed the beauty of water fall before run <3
